Want
to
know
all
the
games
that
have
been
nominated
for
this
year’s
Game
Awards?
Well,
look
no
further,
chums,
because
the
full
list
has
been
announced
ahead
of
the
show
on
December
12th.
The
headliners

Astro
Bot
and

Fantasy
7
Rebirth,

nominate
for

Elden
Ring
Shadow
of
the
Erdtree
might
prove
to
be
a
divisive
entry
in
the
Game
of
the
Year
category
since
it’s
actually
an
expansion,
and
many
people
understandably
hold
the
opinion
that
Game
of
the
Year
should
refer
to
a
full,
standalone
release.
I
am,
I
have
to
say,
one
of
those
people,
which
is
not
to
diminish
the
excellence
of
Shadow
of
the
Erdtree.
And
if
you
fancy
taking
part
in
the
awards,
you
can
cast
your
vote
on
the
official
Game
Awards
website.
